Abstract: It is necessary to change the parameters of PID controller if the parameters of plants change or there are disturbances. Particle swarm optimization algorithm is a powerful optimization algorithm to find the global optimal values in the problem space. In this paper, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to identify the model of the plant and the parameter of digital PID controller online. The model of the plant is identified online according to the absolute error of the real system output and the identified model output. The digital PID parameters are tuned based on the identified model and they are adaptive if the model is changed. Simulations are done to validate the proposed method comparing with the classical PID controller.
